Electric Muscle Stimulation

Electrical muscle stimulation, or EMS, is a physical therapy treatment that can be used to sooth, prevent and treat the effects of musculoskeletal injuries. It’s also a fantastic way to relieve pain and stress, accelerate natural healing and increase your range of motion.


Athletes, and those who are recovering from occupation injuries or an auto accident, can greatly benefit from the effects of our electrical muscle stimulation capabilities. We use this therapy in combination with our physiotherapy modalities that include ultrasound, trigger point therapy and rehabilitation exercises.


Electrical muscle stimulation can help you retain your performance levels and even enhance them thanks to the flexibility improvement that can result from this treatment.


We welcome any questions you may have about this unique therapy and look forward to showing you how it can help your healing and wellness.
